Randomly Generated Paper Accepted to Conference
Some students at MIT wrote a program called SCIgen - An Automatic CS Paper Generator. From their website: SCIgen is a program that generates random Computer Science research papers, including graphs, figures, and citations. What's amazing is that one of their randomly generated paper was accepted to WMSCI 2005. Now they are accepting donation to fund their trip to the conference and give a randomly generated talk.

I've seen similar stuff when I was researching a true random-namegenerator (like randomly generated sports-pages and poems), but this one definitely has got to be the best. The idea is pretty 'simple', but actually finding & categorizing enough data to generate a good result is the hardest part.

The 'Markov-chain' is at the heart of such a system.
